Release Summary 2.6.7 Secondary Billing

The Aloha ABA team is excited to share our latest update regarding Secondary Billing. On Tuesday, July 2 2024 at 11:30PM PST Secondary Billing features will be deployed to all customer sites. During this time, your site may be temporarily unavailable for a short period as these updates are implemented. 

Key highlights of the Secondary Billing release include: 

• Ability to edit fields 17a, 17b, 19, 22, 24H, 24i, 24J, 31, 32, and 33 on claim forms 

• Automatic transfer of client balances to secondary payer balances upon ERA posting 

• Automatic posting of primary remittance information on secondary claim forms 
  

Detailed step by step instructions for how to bill secondary within Aloha ABA can be found at this link here. 

Please note that initially, our Secondary Billing feature will exclusively support Office Ally as the selected clearinghouse at this time. Our team is working on Availity EDI Clearinghouse and we will keep our users posted. 

We recommend submitting one secondary claim to each payer initially to ensure its acceptance in the payer portal before proceeding with mass billing of all secondary claims. Once confirmed, feel free to submit additional claims confidently. 

As with any new release, while our team diligently tests as many scenarios as possible, there will be isolated cases we haven't encountered. If you encounter any issues with specific payers upon our release, please notify us promptly at support@alohaaba.com so we can add the necessary adjustments.  

We sincerely appreciate your continued support as part of the Aloha family. We look forward to seeing our users benefit from this feature very soon!
